Decorating my Dorm with my Roommate: A How To

                

               This tutorial comes to you, because of my awesome roommate, Cristina. Who decided to decorate the room =). She also added the saying "Dismiss whatever insults your own soul" to her side of the room using the say technique. The hands and legs you see in the pictures are hers =)

(It says "Normal is just a setting on your hairdryer)

Supplies needed:

• Letter Stencils
• Magazines
• Pencil/Pen
• Scissors
• Sticky Tack

 Step 1: Find a wall you would like to decorate! =)

Step 2: Lay out all of your letter stencils, so you can easily find any letters you need

Step 3: Take out your magazines

Step 4: Lay out your letter stencils in the form of the phase you'd like to spell. Just do the first couple words to keep and neat and also because you'll run out of letters.

Step 5: Select pages that you like. Try to avoid white, if your walls are white like mine. If not try to avoid the color of your walls.

Step 6: Lay your letter on the page that you like and try to get the most interesting part of the picture.

*Try to make sure that all the letters are oriented the same way on the magazine pages.

Step 7: Trace the letter on to the magazine dark enough that you can see it when you take the letter away.

Step 8: Follow the traced line and cut out the letters.

Step 9: Lay out the letters as you go, so you can make sure you are spelling everything correctly and you're not missing any letters. Once you have all the letters you can switch the letters that are the same to make the letters look nicer together.

Step 10: Use sticky tack or tape to attach the letters to the wall in whatever configuration that you'd like.

And you're done! =)
